Text 168. Desperate situation and hope

    No one expected that a small door would actually block the pursuing soldiers.  ././Until an earthworm arrived, it helped them open up their marching route.

    Just one earthworm is already difficult to deal with. Seeing those spider-sized bugs crawling all over the ground, everyone feels like their hair is standing on end.

    Firepower quickly fell on the earthworms, because the small bugs were too difficult to hit, and there were not so many bullets specifically designed to deal with those small bugs.

    ¡°These bugs don¡¯t seem to bite!¡± someone shouted.

    The spider bug has already broken through the encirclement, endlessly crawling across the soldiers' insteps, rushing deeper into the "palace".

    "These bugs really don't bite people." Feihu picked one up casually, put it in the palm of his hand, and showed it to Duda. "It looks no different from ordinary spiders." After the great migration of mankind, there were also various species on the lunar base.  Plant common insects, and some insect eggs are mixed in the luggage of immigrant families, which cannot be completely disinfected.

    Duda held the headlight and took a look. It was indeed very well-behaved, and he could even feel that it was filled with fear.  Feihu casually crushed the spider to death and clapped his hands.

    Duda was stunned and thought: Ignorant people are really fearless, aren't they afraid that this kind of insect is poisonous?

    Before he could say anything, he heard Feihu say "Ouch" and couldn't help but asked anxiously: "What's wrong!"

    "The body fluids of this bug are a bit irritating." Fei Hu said, "It hurts like a needle prick, but it's not a big problem. Hey, the skin is red."

    Duda couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart. If one insect was so corrosive, wouldn't there be so many insects that could instantly corrode everyone into dregs?

    "Huo Jia. Excavate quickly!" Duda said.

    "Report! The big earthworm is gone!" the soldiers of the Marine Company shouted excitedly.

    It seems that the earthworm just came to clear the way for the insect, and left here after completing the task.  However, the soldiers soon discovered that they were too optimistic. The earthworm did not completely leave. It just left the range of fire and also blocked the way for people to return.

    More and more bugs came in along the opened tunnel, as if there was no end.

    Soon some soldiers discovered a new game: stepping on bugs.

    I have to admit that this is a very interesting game, with solid combat boots stepping on the sea of ??insects.  The rustling sound underfoot and the slight resistance give people a sense of conquest.  And even if someone doesn't want to step on bugs so childishly, they still can't avoid the tide of bugs on the ground.  You can only walk around on the corpses of insects.

    After a while, the ground turned into mud.

    "These bugs are poisonous, don't step on them intentionally." Duda frowned.  The bad feeling in my heart became stronger and stronger.  The place he selected was relatively easy to dig. With Huo Jia as the drill bit, the others only had to follow the grain of the rock to expand the tunnel.  Fortunately, these rocks are not hard granite, which makes everyone feel more relaxed.

    ¡°These bugs, if you don¡¯t move them, will seem to die.¡± Feihu is the only person with good night vision and can see clearly under the dim light produced by the headlight.

    Duda soon discovered this strange phenomenon.  These bugs will also die quickly without outside interference.  They come thousands of miles away, as if just to die.  This is of course very unscientific. No natural species could evolve in this way - if it means death after having sex.  That would be easier to accept.

    But when he thought of Teklin, Duda felt relieved.  From the information revealed by Infernal Affairs, we can know that insects can choose the direction of evolution to evolve.  If so, the emergence of suicide bugs may not be impossible.  Perhaps because the time was too short, the genetic changes were too hasty.  Hence this unsuccessful evolution.

    "They seem to have released some kind of gas after they died" Huo Jia frowned.

    A vague smell of rotten eggs gradually came into the air, and it became heavier and heavier as the bugs kept pouring in.  Duda and his gang finally know what "insecticide" is, and it can even break through human protective masks.

    The first ones to feel uncomfortable were Zhang Tianyu and Zheng Ran.  Immediately came the soldiers of the Marine Company, who were all standard "ordinary people" in comparison.  Muradin fares better, but quickly loses the ability to work hard.  Feihu carried them one by one into the dug cave, feeling a little dizzy and weak himself.

    "This gas will cause people to completely lose muscle vitality." Zhang Tianyu said nervously, "Soon we will die from cardiopulmonary failure."

    "No! We will dig to the ground!" Duda said firmly. He felt the front end of the lightsaber hit something, and the force flowed out like a shield.  ??Must be the Stargate shield.

    This kind of protective shield is like a thickened egg shell. It is as difficult to break through from the inside as it is from the outside.

    ¡°Dig along the shield, it¡¯s still too early for them to completely fill this place!¡± Duda shouted to Hoja.

    Like playing a small game, Duda must dig out more space before the bugs create enough poisonous gas to fill the entire space.

    However, the speed of digging was obviously not as fast as the insect's suicide. It wasn't long before Zhang Tianyu was heard shouting - Zheng Ran was about to die.

    Huo Jia walked over in two steps, took off the helmet on his head, and put it directly on Zheng Ran's head.  He always remembered Duda saying that whether he could return to his home planet largely depended on the two people in front of him who were so weak that they could be crushed to death with one finger.

    "It's okay with you, right?" Duda didn't want to be a main force for someone who was about to die.  And it was really hard for him to imagine that a war fanatic who often shouted the slogan "kill, kill, kill" could be so gentle and kind.

    "Pain is an illusion of the senses, despair is an illusion of the soul." Huo Jia replied, turned around, grabbed his weapon, and continued digging into the wall.

    Duda has long since changed to an engineer shovel. Although the speed will be slower, it will not trigger the shield reaction.

    After half an hour, Duda finally felt the physical exhaustion and the impact of the rotten egg smell on his body.

    "I can't do it anymore." Feihu leaned against the wall, his chest heaving, "I have no strength left."

    Duda glanced at the robot-like Huo Jia, then looked at the growing number of bugs outside, and called the dwarf in the drill for the last time, but nothing happened, and there was no response at all.  No one knows what happened to them, maybe they died, or maybe they were blocked from the radio signal.

    ¡ª¡ªWho said despair is an illusion?  It was obviously like an invisible hand, strangling his neck tightly, making it completely impossible to breathe.

    Duda thought in his mind, leaning heavily on the rock mass, and was hit by the sensor on his back.

    ¡°The only way now is for me to return to the Pingyang Princess and come in along the passage to rescue you.¡± Duda took out the key and sighed.

    He has never forgotten Princess Pingyang. How could he forget such an important trump card?  However, Princess Pingyang can only accommodate up to three people, and someone is bound to die here because they are too late to rescue.  And in terms of size, Huo Jia couldn't enter Princess Pingyang's cabin at all. Could it be that he was left to die here alone?

    But now there is no other way. If you can save one more, just save one more.

    "I told you to go back a long time ago." Fei Hu gasped.  For her, it is not a big problem if the man under her protection can survive, even if she dies here.

    Du Da looked at Zhang Tianyu: "Is there any other way?"

    Zhang Tianyu suddenly fell into a moral test.  If Duda does this, who will leave first and who will leave last?

    "Tactical suggestion: activate the logistics transport ship No. 756-531, and use the portal to return to the lunar base." Before Zhang Tianyu could finish his thinking, the commander's auxiliary system had already put forward a seemingly reliable tactical suggestion.

    Duda was very surprised by this and woke up immediately.  This unfortunate place of system IQ has never given any useful tactical advice since its activation.

    It seems to be the same thing now. Where can I find a transportation ship?

    "How do I activate the logistics transport ship No. 756-531?" Duda asked.

    "Light transmission is possible, do you want to transmit it?" the system asked.

    "Can you teleport me back to this location?"

    "Fixed transmission position 3 is set." The system is very efficient.

    "Then, teleport." Duda looked around and said firmly.

    A white light flashed in everyone's eyes, and Duda disappeared out of thin air.

    The smell of rotten eggs in the air dissipated instantly, Duda was already on a spacious bridge, and the entire bridge was immediately illuminated with dim lights.

    The bridge is divided into three shallow layers. If the front surveillance window is replaced with a large screen, it will look like a multi-functional lecture hall of a state-owned enterprise.  The location where Duda teleported in was at the back end of the bridge. Behind him was a closed metal door with a yin-yang fish like a Tai Chi diagram drawn in the middle. You could tell how to open it at a glance.

    Duda stepped down the 60-centimeter-high steps from the third floor and entered the driving pool.  There are four chairs arranged in a fan shape here, all of which are the same large seats, fitting the huge figure of the Moon Man.  In front of the chair is a matching workstation.  On the next floor, the number of chairs was reduced to three, but the operating table disappeared.

    &nbspDirectly opposite the command pool is a huge observation window, but now it is dark outside with the texture of rock mass.

    ¡°System,¡± Duda called softly, ¡°activate!¡±

    "Connecting" The system answered Duda coldly.

    Duda seemed to feel something strange in the air, as if it was suddenly filled with static electricity.  Before he could react, the static electricity peak had disappeared.  At the same time, three basketball-sized balls of light appeared in front of the three seats in the front row.

    The light ball emits a white haze, and the light is soft, making people feel very comfortable.

    Duda walked over and asked softly: "Is this the ship's operating system?"

    "After verification, you are the highest-ranking officer of this ship. The logistics transport ship No. 756-531 is under your command." A neutral voice echoed on the bridge.  (Your support on this site is my greatest motivation.)
